Talking

Lets not go dramatic here, you can clearly see that the car is all patched up just like this guy is probably making a swap or something. he's probablyburning the motor good so he can sell it on ebay like alot do.

ok, I did some research..... The motor was already blown, ether 2 or 3 apex seals. He had to push the car just to get it to start most the times, and he did put another 13b in there which he is breaking in right now.

They are actually very lucky that the Flywheel/clutch combo didn't break apart and cut that guys legs off... Really dangerous....

Imagine touching the exhaust after that. It was at least hot enough to start plastic on fire.

i was kinda hoping that it'd have a minor leak in the gas tank.
heh, that would've been interesting...

to see these guys try to make a cool video by absolutely destroying an engine..and having the car itself blow up right before their eyes.
